Oh i see. And this pod also acts like a personal evac ship if their ship is destroyed correct? I've been playing Dust for about 3 months now. Just trying to get into the lore behind EVE

start at the bottom however you can read them in any order to be honest.

Completing the reading material will complete your immigration process into New Eden. Enjoy.

Good thing I love reading XD haha favorited the link. Thanks

And anyone know the population of the New Eden galaxy/ star cluster whatever it is XD Both players and general populance?

We are unsure but its sufficient enough to keep about .... 2-3 billion people dying daily to be replaced for crew duty at least.

They are able to leave a pod that is taken apart by a gantry.

Any other attempts to open the pod kills them instantly.

Its been thoerized they have a slow update done when they exit pods to killing one would only make him forget since he last left the pod.

Haha. damn! I figure it must be at least be from low to mid trillion. All the things that happen in EVE ought to warrant the best life insurance in the universe XD

Capsuleers are uumans with tech similsr to ours but less advanced.

Their pods act like the chips stuck in our heads. So if your in the pod your thoughts and junk get transferred over to new clones. But if you get all deadified while not in it well your dead end of story.

The pods can let you out but its hella messy think the matrix scene when neo wakes up in the goo pod.

WAY TOO MUCH INFO
you tried this on me too. didnt work

Is it possible to kill of a Dust Merc?

Other than Biomass?

Actually we have the junk version of their technology. The pod is the interface with which capsuleers interact with their ships. If you read the chronicle Jita 4-4, the cloning apparatus is attached to the person's body, allowing consciousness transfer anywhere. When the pod is cracked, it sends a signal to the transfer device, and kills the pilot to avoid a long and painful death.

All in all, the consciousness transfer used by capsuleers is very advanced, and is designed to be as perfect as possible. For us bunnies, it isn't quite as advanced, as it is salvaged from the capsuleers, but was instead designed to be mass produced.

Assuming our clones are maintained by CONCORD (The space police) It takes some serious bribery to actually kill someone. However, it is well known that CONCORD has no jurisdiction over planets, which would imply that the cloning is done by way of the MCC. If we take that to be true, killing a bunny when there was no MCC in transfer range, they would die permanently.

If they are, then how are they able to get out of their pods and into their quarters that i've seen in videos? I thought Capsuleers are almost like the human-cylon hybrids that control the basestars in their gooey pods but unable to get out of them. This is confusing but im trying my best XD

12,000 isk retires a family btw. That's how high tech your drop-suit is...

Also crew of capsuleered ships do have the best insurance, their deaths usually help their family out of the worst of debts and set something up nice for them at least, unfourutnate they have the second shortest lifespan of any job in new eden right after the non capsuleer crewed ship.

Capsuleer checking in! Hi.

This is how. It's rather painful.

Chribba? In DUST? Well I be damned if you aren't in here too...

You are 100% wrong.

If you would read the EVE novels including latest one that introduced DUST merc tech. We have sleeper technology that is very advanced. Before capsuleers were the only ones that could have conciousness transferred because the apparatus was large and had to be in perfect placement to do a scan. This enabled only capsuleers in pods to ahve this. Once New Eden unlocked the tech to have it implanted IN the brain did that allow DUST mercs this same capability.

yeah that's it : ) You'd wake up not knowing what happen the last week while you were in the pleasure hub

oh also the tech we have only works in the fifth lobe of the cerebral cortex.

whats that you say there are only four lobes in the cerebral cortex??

you sir know your anatomy. Just not your dust clones anatomy, dust clones cant really be called human by any stretch of the imagination they have a whole load of weird things like additional spins and organs. They are apparently down right hideous.

which is why I think its funny that the female models are designed around a grade school idea of the perfect female form. That said the only dust clones whos appearance was mentioned in eve lore that I know of were early proto types so maybe Mordu learn to make them sexy extra spines and all.

tho those combat heals are still a bit much.

Hi guys! I'm one of the dudes who's worked on the EVE Lore before, though not the great degree that many others within CCP have, so allow me to clear up a few misconceptions and whatnot.

1) Capsuleers can get out of their pods and without cloning. They use what's called a pod gantry which extracts them. They plug in to their capsules via neural rigs along their spine.
2) Capsuleers and DUST mercs use fairly different technology. Capsules were developed by the Jove and cloning was added in later by the other races. The cloning tech that capsuleers use is bulky and restrictive, hence their need to be in the pod to use it. DUST soldiers have small implants in their brains which can transmit consciousness easier. DUST implants are derived from the Sleepers, a race which was once part of the Jove but broke off thousands of years ago.

Though great explanations ill try to give a frame of tv refrence to this.

1) I like to think of matrix's machine civilizations pods used in the human battery. Though mabey without the goo.

2) for those of u who have seen the tv show Dollhouse think of the wireless mind implanting without most of the freedom of being implanted in anyones head. According to new eden the tech can only transfer u to an identical brain due to well lets go with size issues.

We're humans evolved by 50k years and genetic tweaking.

Maybe I am wrong on this, but I thought the body you use in the Mercenary quarters was your own body, or a high quality clone of your real body, but the clones you use in combat were mass produced, purpose built, generic clone bodies. I would assume it would be the battle clones that have the reinforced spine and redundant organs. I also assume that there are female clones because female mercenaries found it disconcerting using male clones. I am referring more to body type here. I am not sure if battle clones of either gender actually come equipped with sex organs.
